Alabama's run-stuffing junior defensive lineman A'Shawn Robinson stands 6-foot-4, weighs 312 pounds and looks at least a dozen years older than his  true age.

FOX Sports' Stewart Mandel asked Robinson's about how his appearance belied his age at Tuesday's Cotton Bowl Media Day:

Robinson is actually 20 years old, born on Mar. 21, 1995.  

"He's always been big for his age," his mother Abigail told AL.com. "I called him the man child."

Back in the day his mother would have to bring A'Shawn's birth certificate to games because opposing coaches would challenge his age so frequently. Please do yourself a favor and go check out AL.com's photo of Robinson at two months old.
